THE HOUSE OF CANVASES
Thirty-five thousand people are working on flax in this part of Côtes-d'Armor, thus ensuring its prosperity between the th and th centuries, when looking at the architecture of the towns. At that time, this land of weavers - covering the communes of Quintin, Loudéac, Chatelaudren, Saint-Thélo and Uzel - produced world-famous linen paintings known as the canvases of Brittany. The House of Toiles is installed in a merchant's home. You will discover this great saga that ended at the beginning of the th century for various causes such as the continental blockade, competition from cotton and mills in the North, and agricultural expansion.
